Love that tracker, excellent idea  :wave

Yeah I figured that's the easiest way to do it and less of a pain for everyone.  I know some people won't fill it in though, who are the main suspects for this?

16 as well

Can't wait to see who goes for 1-10 caps first pick

Certainly am considering it --- scarcity sorted is better than accumulating big names early.

People arent, its just Trend (probably still having his morning shit over there!)
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

No double Dutch treats in this draft, but if there was one, only one --- it might as well be Johan Cruyff (and some of you are gonna find the 40's slim pickings after about 10 in this category).

Welcome Johan, total football - a smoke and a pancake!

he's far, far before my time but everything I've heard about Garrincha (either from people who saw him on the flesh or in written, second-hand accounts) says he was absurdly good. Heartbreaking and tragic death, sadly.

Ah fair enough, clearly misread the initial post/hallucinated out of my mind, thought there was a time limit.

When round 2 starts, know that I am in DC area - so if you want to send me a few picks go for it since I am at the other end of the order.

Glad to have you LSR

Awesome, thanks fella!

Grew up in Indiana and moved around Michigan/Kansas City etc...  but have always been a big fan of Texas teams (mostly Cowboys and Astros) since the early 70's.

Glad to have another yank on the board after one of our own was tossed (he that must not be named in Arizona :) - just joking here not provoking.

Hey, I am putting together together a fantasy football (NFL) start-up league using the Ryder Cup theme (2 places for Americans left and 2 places for Euros left) - let me know if you are interested in something like that --- should be minimal time commitment since most of the work will be done by the commish - but a fun group of guys to draft with.   FYI

Cheers.

I am content. I just want more.

I just wanted to beat Trend to the title of the biggest draft loser but sadly rawk had other plans. Now I must break the record for the most draft wins. Who has that record LMM? Betty? Hazell?

;D
